Candelaria Festival, Puno, Peru: The Candelaria Festival in Perú is a surprising fusion of colonial religious tradition with deep-rooted customs and its veneration of the Virgin. For her, Puno is considered the folkloric capital of America and is the Diablada, one of the most colorful and representative dances of this festival, where more than 40,000 dancers and 200 musical bands express all their devotion to the fullest through their wonderful costumes and an energy that makes them dance for two full weeks.

Lago Titicaca-Sea of  the Andes 

This destination is meant for those that are looking to be immersed in Peruvian culture. This lake is a national treasure, it is local legend that the world was created from the lake by the Incan god Viracocha. Its habitants continue to practice traditional customs, they wear typical colorful garments, and they are farmers and fishermen. Their way of life has been preserved through centuries, they still speak quechua and host festivals with traditional music and dances. One of them is the party of the Virgen de la Candelaria, where dancers bring offerings to Mother Earth while wearing demonic masks. 

A unique characteristic of the lake its the floating islands that were built by the Uros. These man made islands allowed them to stay isolated from enemies, there are 40 of them. They sit on top of the lake's 3800 meters of altitude , which makes it the tallest lake in the world. While on the islands the locals show how they use the totora, a aquatic plant, to built their houses and boats. As well they share their day to day routines and history.
